What Advising Can Do for You
Each college at Cal Poly determines how it will interpret the university's policies on academic requirements. Academic advisors help students avoid time-consuming and costly mistakes so that they can graduate on time. Students who visit an advisor regularly are less stressed and more in control of their goals and plans.
